“I started off rapping for people just like myself, people who were in awe of wealth and flash. It was a conversation between me and them. But now most of those who buy my records are listening in on others’ conversation.

—Ice-T [Tracy Marrow], U.S. rap musician. Observer (London, Oct. 27, 1991)
“The loosening, for some people, of rigid role definitions for men and women has shown that dads can be great at calming babies—if they take the time and make the effort to learn how.

—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
“Pray but one prayer for me ‘twixt thy closed lips,
Think but one thought of me up in the stars.”

“Come, thou long-expected Jesus,
born to set thy people free;
from our fears and sins release us,
let us find our rest in thee.”
—Charles Wesley (1707–1788)
